A closed graph theorem for order bounded operators

The closed graph theorem is one of the cornerstones of linear functional analysis in Frechet spaces, and the extension of this result to more general topological vector spaces is a difficult problem comprising a great deal of technical difficulty. However, the theory of convergence vector spaces provides a natural framework for closed graph theorems. In this paper we use techniques from convergence vector space theory to prove a version of the closed graph theorem for order bounded operators on Archimedean vector lattices. This illustrates the usefulness of convergence spaces in dealing with problems in vector lattice theory, problems that may fail to be amenable to the usual Hausdorff-Kuratowski-Bourbaki concept of topology
